“Are you doing what you love to do?” were the words that the beautiful Michelle Williams, former member of the world renowned sensational girl group Destiny’s Child, asked an audience of entrepreneurial minded women in Detroit on Tuesday, June 22 at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History.

Williams is headlining the Ladies that Lead Tour presented by the Boss Network and sponsored by Prudential and The Limited. Detroit was the first stop on the tour in 2016 and it brought out women from various fields to hear what influential experts had to say about leadership, entrepreneurship and how to represent like a boss.

The event, which kicked off last year in New York, highlights influential women of color who can inspire other women by sharing their strategies and journey to success. The overall goal of the event is to celebrate female leadership and to encourage women to pursue their ambitions. The panelists included Martha Newton, VP, Operational Risk Management, Prudential Financial; Priscilla Williams, founder of Healthy Women Lead; Avec O’Brien, controller, U.S. & Mexico at Mastronardi Produce Ltd., and Khadija B. Wallace, president, Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti Black Chamber of Commerce. These phenomenal women are not only leaders in their industry, but also leaders in their community. They set a standard for what success looks like and they own their power.

Cameka Smith, founder of the B.O.S.S. Network (Bringing Out Successful Sisters), moderated the panel discussion and the one-on-one conversation with keynote speaker Michelle Williams. The panel experts had great advice for the audience and definitely “…inspired them towards greatness and action,” as one attendee explained.

Williams shared advice and inspirational insight. One key piece of advice she shared was to “Focus on one or two things, and be great in those,” something she said she initially struggled with. And it seems as if Williams is taking her own advice well. When asked what’s next for her, Williams confidently answered, “I don’t know what’s next. I’m not saying I don’t know what’s next. But I’m not afraid to say, I’m sticking to what I’m doing right now.”

Check out some pictures from the inspirational event. We want to hear from you. What do you think it takes to be a boss woman who leads?

The 15 year anniversary of Destiny’s Child album “Survivor” approaches on Sunday, May 1st. Entertainment Weekly caught up with Michelle Williams, who gave some insider stories on what it was like working on “Survivor”.

Still Bootylicious after all these years, Michelle Williams and other key players of the group’s pop classic share untold stories from the studio

The third album from Destiny’s Child debuted in May 2001, hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200, and cemented Beyoncé Knowles, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams as one of the decade’s best pop trios. But before its release, the group underwent lineup turmoil: LeToya Luckett, LaTavia Roberson, and Farrah Franklin left the group and Williams was asked to join. So, for Survivor, Knowles wanted to write and produce all the songs, and show fans that the group was as strong as ever. Here’s how it all went down.

MICHELLE WILLIAMS: Beyoncé was tired of people talking about the Destiny’s Child members changing asking, who was going to be the last one to survive? As the new member, I was being protective over the girls because I was just starting to know them. There are member changes in groups all the time. Things happen. I believe in the journey Destiny’s Child had to take to fulfill the group’s mission: to continue to empower everybody.

WILLIAMS: We were just writing and eating, writing and eating in the studio. Chips, candy, smoothies, ordering a lot of Boston Market rotisserie chicken, the sweet potato casserole, corn bread. Of course Popeyes—which gave us life-membership cards during the Survivor era.

WILLIAMS: We got fan letters that said, “I’ve been bullied, but I put on Survivor before I go to school and it takes the fear away.” The legacy of Survivor is sisterhood and empowerment.
